INTRODUCTION
Poor reading comprehension of young learners is a huge concern in the Philippines. The
outcome of the recent 2018 Program for International Student Assessment (PISA) showed that the
country ranked lowest among the 79 countries tested in reading literacy. PISA is a worldwide study
by the OECD (Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development) which judges education
systems in member and non-member countries. Hence, the Department of Education used PISA
results as a springboard in aiming quality standards.
Inadequate academic performance, low self-confidence, and frustration can be the effects of
poor reading skills. When children don’t get what they read, it affects their capacity to succeed in
school. All subjects, most especially science and math, demand great reading comprehension. Even
quizzes and exams require good reading awareness. According to a survey, one cause of poor
reading comprehension is that many students loathe reading. Forty-one percent of parents say that
their children avoid reading. Reading comprehension is not just reading a text, but it is analyzing
and understanding the meaning behind each word. It is the ability to look at written words and
process the purpose or ideas behind them. Poor comprehension can be acquired if you can’t
connect individual sentences or paragraphs of text, give up in reading quickly, or you can’t answer
questions related to the story. Improving reading comprehension skills is important for grasping
storybooks as a young child. As kids get older, this ability will help them understand textbooks,
newspapers, and other more complicated texts.
Indeed, Pototan National Comprehensive High School was bound to help its students with
the best learning setting as possible. The school aims to increase the number of students that can
develop good reading comprehension skills by providing them what they need. This institution
presents areas such as a library and Teen center which can cater to a child’s thirst for learning. Yet,
a huge percentage of students particularly in grade 7 needed more adjustments and concentration
to develop their skills. As students of PNCHS, we are hoping best for the kids and we wanted to help
them take a huge leap in reaching their dreams. Through “Project BUKLAD” which stands for
“Basahin at Unawain: Kaunlaran ng Lahat, Aklat ang Dahilan”, improving reading comprehension
can be more accessible and possible.
In support of Department of Education’s campaign Sulong EduKalidad (“boost or push
education quality”) which is guided by a masterplan to install aggressive reform in four key areas:
(1) K to 12 curriculum review and updating; (2) Improvement of the learning environment; (3)
Teachers’ upskilling and reskilling through a transformed professional development program; and
(4) Engagement of stakeholders for support and collaboration, the project BUKLAD will implement
reading activities in schools specifically in Pototan National Comprehensive High School at Step I
and neighborhood of the campus in Step II.
Moreover, this project will not only amend comprehension in reading but it also aims to
create a “moving library” which is accessible, give equal opportunities, and interaction with
children. If learners were afraid exploring the insides of the library, we’ll bring the library to them.
Thus, they will not just read the books that pique their interests, they can also participate orally in
reading activities conducted by the volunteers.

This project proposal aims the following objectives:
 To promote awareness that reading can be fun.

Enjoying reading will motivate learners to continue what they have started. They
will probably explore and discover new interests. And spreading the awareness may
inspire others that reading is such a helpful tool to acquire new knowledge.
 To establish a reading activity.

Reading shouldn’t be boring. Discussing and evaluating the things (weaknesses) that
wasn’t fully understand is possible if students engage actively on the reading
activities provided. With these activities, there’s a greater chance of developing
reading skills.
 To help support DepEd’s campaign Sulong EduKalidad

Sulong Edukalidad is DepEd’s rallying call for a national effort for education quality.
With the recent result of PISA, we wanted to improve the reading comprehension of
students to further improve other academic aspects.
 To improve the reading comprehension of students

A good reading comprehension makes the students intellectually interact and
construct meaning from the text. Hence, intensified reading skills can make the
learner build the foundation of knowledge that is needed in our practical
circumstances.
Benefits
 It may improve reading comprehension of students

 Boost self-confidence and increase vocabulary of learners
 Reading will be more accessible and enjoyable
 Motivate youth in consistent reading

Methodology
Vocabulary Checking
Before reading, the volunteers or TEENBAYAN officers will go over possible new words,
with proper pronunciation and explaining what these words mean. Comprehension in reading
rely on a combination of vocabulary, context, and the interaction of words. A struggle in
understanding one word may change the flow of what you have established while reading.
Using these newly discovered words in a sentence will be a good strategy.
Face to face Interaction
In this method, volunteer workers will interact with students. After reading a material out
loud, they’ll try to evaluate what the students have learned, what was the story all about and
other questions that can tickle the mind of the listeners. One strategy to improve reading
comprehension is asking the child what he or she learned and his or her thoughts. When talking
about the material with the learner, asking him or her to recap and summarize the main points
will result to critical thinking. Letting the child explain in his or her own words ensures that
he/she understands what was read. It also helps relate the idea/concept to what he or she
already knows.
Exploring Interests
In this method, children will have the opportunity to pick a book that suits his/her interest
on a specific time. Sometimes, low reading comprehension comes down to the fact that a student
just isn’t interested in what he or she is reading. In fact, 73% of students say they would read
more if they could find books they liked (Oxford Learning, 2018).

 MONITORING AND EVALUATION

Pototan, Iloilo
The TEENBAYAN officers or volunteers will conduct a simple evaluation sheet for the
advisers in each classroom about their students’ performance in participating the reading
activity. This will be done two months starting from the month of September-October 2020.
A daily sheet will be given to every classroom for the monitoring and evaluation of the
reading activity. Inside this to-do sheet they will affix their signature and the adviser’s signature to
ensure its accuracy. In this way we can check if they indeed done the activity.
